Is the world's most lovable animals. Panda has to survive on Earth for at least 800 years. According to the third national giant panda population survey, less than 1,600 pandas in the wild around the world, belonging to China at the national level to protect animals. As of October 2011, the national number of 333 giant pandas in captivity. Panda eating meat initially, after evolution, 99% of the food is bamboo, but also the teeth and digestive tract intact, still classified as carnivores. Wild panda life of 18 to 20 years old, captivity can be over 30 years old.

1) Shape characteristics
Body stout like panda bears, plump rich state, round head short tail, head and forequarters length 1200 ~ 1800mm, tail length 100 ~ 120mm. Weight 80 ~ 120kg, can weigh up to 180kg, slightly heavier panda breeding, males slightly larger than females generally. Head and body, hair color was black and white, but black is not pure black, but black and brown belt. White is not white, but white with yellow. Black and white appearance, is conducive hidden in the jungle trees and snow on the ground and not easily found predators . Developed relatively sharp claws and powerful hind legs in front, is conducive to the giant panda can quickly climb tall trees. Vision is very underdeveloped panda, it is because they live in dense bamboo forest, very dark, but there are many obstacles to make eyes become very shortsighted. In addition, because of its longitudinal pupil is a cat. Accordingly, when the night falls in the evening, they can also activity.
2) Habitat
Panda habitat in China's Yangtze River upper reaches of the mountains and deep valleys, the windward side of the southeast monsoon, cool and humid climate, the humidity often more than 80%, which is a very moist like animals. 6 pandas live panhandle, including Minshan, Qionglaishan, Liangshan, Daxiangling, Xiaoxiangling and other major Qinling Mountains across Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu three provinces 45 counties(city), habitat land area of 20,000 square kilometers, population about 1,600, of which more than 80% distributed in Sichuan Province. The area of their activities mostly in Au ditch, hillside depressions, valley terraces, etc., generally below 20 ° gentle slope terrain. These places, lush forests, bamboo grows well, the temperature is relatively stable, concealed in good condition, food and water resources are abundant.
3) Habits
-Behavioral characteristics
Half a day to remove the giant panda eating time, the majority of the remaining half of the time is spent in his sleep. In the wild, pandas eating twice in the middle of every two to four hours sleep, lying down, lie down, prone, they are stretched or curled up like a sleeping mode. Inside the zoo, keepers feed them twice a day regularly, so the other pandas have time to rest. Even in sleep panda looks very cute. They are very flexible and can put them into a variety of bulky body posture. Favorite position is the leg brace in the trees, and hand over his eyes. Pandas are good at climbing trees, but also playful. Climbing behavior courtship period is generally close to or escape danger, or when they meet each other in order to avoid the weak strong way. Panda sometimes down into the valley, string into the village hamlet or residential, to pots and pans with a bucket, especially round the vessel as a toy, play and discarded mountains. Sometimes they also, and sheep, pigs and other domesticated livestock Goodwill, along with room and board. Under normal circumstances, the giant panda is always very docile temperament, for the first time to see people, common forefoot masked, or head down, do not reveal the real capacity. They rarely take the initiative to attack other animals or people, a chance encounter in the field, always use evasive manner. But one but a mother whose baby is sacrosanct, even caring to visit and also angered his mother flies into a rage, claws, hands and feet. Sometimes they also love to make some modifications and some other fitness activities demand. You can straighten the body like a cat, is stretched out before and after the bust lift, allowing flexible body stretch, or after waking up, yawning for straight forelegs. If exposed to water or wading across the river, you can also put him like a dog shaking off water. In the wild, pandas often clashed in rut season, especially when three to four males pursuing a female is in heat. Sometimes, the female and male battle will occur. In the zoo, their battle is usually because of water, food, or pandas occupy a good site.
-Scent mark
The giant panda population, it can be a signal for them to see is meaningless: their lack of expression of a round face, the tail is very short, no crown or brown hair to expand, the ears can be put down but it is not flexible enough. This is because pandas live year round in the mountains lush misty bamboo forest inside, can not see each other caused. Most of the exchanges pandas left in the habitat through scent marking to achieve. When they want to meet, usually estrus season, it will find each other through scent marking. Once they see the future, they turn voice communication. Pandas rely on them rich "language" to express from sentimental to angry emotions. Silence is another form of communication. When pandas are playing, or simply be friendly, no mating or aggressive thoughts, when they do not emit any sound. This sound rules can help people determine most of the zoo to see the panda's behavior.
-Diet Food
Panda diet is its most peculiar and interesting habits , as it is almost entirely by eating bamboo living in the wild foraging for more than 50 kinds of natural plants, bamboo accounted for more than half the total annual amount of food and 99 %, of which most like to eat a large bamboo , nitida seven kinds . Although with diet changes , some organs also played the corresponding changes, especially the teeth , it is very well developed molars , are the most powerful carnivores , the structure is more complex, close to the omnivorous mammals , cracked teeth differentiation is not obvious , canines and premolars developed, no alveolar clearance . Curved incisors arranged lower incisors showed a row , the second pair of lower incisors rearward position often seems to form a double row , a phenomenon in aging individuals skull obvious. Canine tooth root thick, while the crown becomes shorter tip is not sharp. A first pair of small premolars , common with the phenomenon of missing one or both , the second leading edge of the forward bias molars , the trailing edge is biased , the semi- oblique , third and fourth pairs of upper premolars the crown was prism, there are three outside , inside there are two dens . Molars are called Confucius sudden tooth , chewing surfaces especially large, roughly rectangular, with different sizes of nodules tooth tip, upper molars with four large sharp teeth , and finally a large upper molars , extending back at rear cheekbones , small crown surface has a complex prism dens , and finally a lower molars small , sharp teeth is not obvious, is located inside the front edge of the chin support . Carnivores generally last a coronoid upper molars are located at the base of the front , while the rear molars pandas moved to restrict the upper and lower molars swing around , but also can enhance the effects of chewing , but the effect is limited milling . Different molar wear down , wear of the tooth from a lateral and medial upper molars is started , because the right and left molars greater than the distance between columns jaw tooth row spacing. Overall, it 's teeth and other carnivorous animals, but with herbivorous ungulates are very similar.
-Feeding method
Panda takes nearly half a day's time to eat. Panda's digestive tract retains the characteristics of their ancestors, and similar carnivorous animals, such as the digestive tract relatively short, sharp canine teeth, single-chamber stomach, no cecum and the relatively sharp claws and more developed pads. In the long slow process of evolution, and gradually evolved into a high-fiber bamboo-eating, and to adapt to the evolution of some of the structural characteristics of bamboo for a living, such as the masseter burst of tooth crown, front paws have five toes in addition to the evolution of things, consisting of apseudo-thumb grip on the grip so that the bamboo structure. Most of the time the giant panda to collect in the hands and feet, preparing food and eating. They do not care where they are - sitting, lying down, leaning against the side - they just keep stripping bamboo, eating bamboo leaves. 99% of the food giant panda bamboo, sometimes it could be a number of wildflowers, vines, weeds, honey, and even some meat.
4) Distribution
Distributed in China, Gansu, Shaanxi, Sichuan (regional extinction: Hubei, Hunan). Including Qinling, Minshan Qionglaishan Daxiangling, Xiaoxiangling and size Liangshan Mountains. Located in the south of the Qinling Mountains, Foping County is a major distribution, the general distribution of the county is the Yang County, only a small amount of the distribution Taibai County, Ningshaan weeks, leaving the dam, rather strong. Mishan system except for the general distribution of Gansu Province, the rest are distributed in Sichuan. Mainly distributed in Sichuan Ping Wu Qingchuan County and Beichuan three counties, there are generally distributed Jiuzhaigou County, Songpan, Maoxian County, the county has a small amount of distributions County, Mianzhu, Pengzhou, Shifang and Dujiangyan. Qionglai mainly of Baoxing County, Wenchuan and Vincent, are generally distributed and Dayi County Lushan County, only a small amount of the distribution Qionglai, Chongzhou, Kangding, Luding and so on. Size and mianning Daxiangling addition hongya outside the county for the general distribution, only a small number of counties have yingjing distribution, asbestos, Chinese sources, Kowloon and so on. Liangshan except horse side, and the more the West Meigu a certain number, but only a small number of counties have ganluo distribution, ebian and Leibo and so on.
5) Reproduction
Wild panda habitat in the dense forest, they grow to a certain stage to conduct marriage and childbearing, namely heat, courtship, mating, pregnancy and nursery. Panda usually solitary living, to the breeding season, male and female attract each other in dense bamboo forest, a variety of courtship activities begin. Panda belongs to multi-male competition preparation. They are a small number of lifetime litter and pups difficult to survive. Because panda reproductive capacity and nursery behavior both highly specialized, so that the panda's population growth is very slow.
6) Species Status
Panda distribution area is quite small, in fact it is limited to the distribution sites, Shaanxi, China southern slope of Qinling, Gansu, Sichuan Minshan junction, Sichuan Qionglaishan Daxiangling, Xiaoxiangling and size Liangshan each division 6 distribution area, perched at an altitude of 1400 meters to 3600 meters between the deciduous forest, mixed forest and subalpine coniferous forest mountain bamboo, with a total area of 29,500 square kilometers. Also, because each area mountains, rivers or roads, farmland and other human factors, and then be separated into smaller units, so the actual area of habitat area of less than 20% of the total, only about 5900 square kilometers. Total there are 30 small whole Chinese population, a total of 1000 or so. Inter Wolong, each less than 50 species, some only 10 I only. Fragmented and isolated habitat for the survival of the state distribution of the giant panda breeding and resistance to natural disasters are very unfavorable.
